Our favourite Zlatan Ibrahimovic goals


The former Inter Milan and Barcelona great netted 29 times during his short spell at the Reds, 28 of those coming in the 2016/17 season, when he helped us to EFL Cup glory and laid the platform for our Europa League final triumph in Stockholm.
While, compared to other strikers such as Wayne Rooney, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, there may be comparatively few goals to choose from, our writers have all come up with their own Zlatan favourite.
Who do you agree with most?
ADAM MARSHALL – UNITED V GALATASARAY (FRIENDLY, 2016)
I was fortunate to be in the stadium when Zlatan opened his United account, in a friendly against Galatasaray, in his native Sweden. It was great to see first-hand how charming and accommodating he was at the hotel with the staff beforehand and then, having an instant impact on his debut underlined what a big character and showman he was. The goal was superb, a scissor-kick from an Antonio Valencia’s cross, and the crowd erupted when it bounced into the net. It was the highlight of an enjoyable friendly and suggested Zlatan would have no trouble fitting in and showing off his undoubted class.
